TREASURE COAST - Cool overnight temperatures will make it chilly and clear as predawn Black Friday shoppers line up in front of their favorite stores.

Thursday evening's quick cool-off has temperatures dropping into the 50s and upper 40s into early Friday as breezy northwest winds continue before dropping off after sunrise, according to the National Weather Service in Melbourne.

"It'll be dry with low in mid-50s in the morning," said meteorologist Bob Wimmer. "Not exactly bathing suit weather."

Brisk north winds of 15 to 20 mph will blow north of Fort Pierce, and wind speeds to the south will drop to about 10 mph.

"It's a north wind, so it will make it feel cooler than it is," Wimmer said. "But no clouds, and there's no rain in the future."

Temperatures Friday will peak in the low 70s. The weekend is expected to stay dry and sunny with a warming into the middle part of next week.
